Dad’s Funeral this Friday…

Again thank you from all of us for the kind and beautiful words streaming in from far and wide. Toby you have again brought tears to my eyes with your eloquence and strength.

Dad is to be buried this Friday at 2pm in Bristol. All of his friends are more than welcome. I know he would have wanted people to celebrate his life and wish him well for his future travels.

It will be a traditional Jewish Funeral, so for those who haven’t attended one before I have put together a few tips.

Dress code: Traditionally, we do not dress up to the nines. Clean but old clothes are in order. With hats mandatory for the men, but headware optional for the ladies.

Flowers – no flowers please, Dad would have liked you to donate to one of the Cancer charities for him instead.

Location

It will be at 2pm on Friday the 29th August, at Eastville Jewish Cemetery, Oakdene Avenue, off Fishponds Road in Bristol, BS5 6QQ. Its a few minutes from the M32 which connects the M4 and Bristol Centre. Parking is on the street and side streets around the cemetery.

If you click on either Map you will get taken to the full version if that helps you find the place.

It looks like it is exactly where Tony would have wanted to be, close to most of his children, and in a traditional Jewish Cemetery.

Any questions please email me direct on adamososki@yahoo.co.uk

All are welcome.

    To you all our great sorrow at your great loss of a very special husband, father, brother and friend goes with our deepest heartfelt sympathy.

    We can only live in regret that we saw little of him in recent years but that we cannot now change. Tony the devoted family man and workaholic to the end for sure finally at rest. The memories maybe sparce but so precious spread over so many years will be with us always. God bless you all.

    I am sorry I cannot be there on Friday but my heart will be. I will be in Bristol next month and would like to visit then and will speak to Tracy at that time.

    I will say a private prayer on Friday.

    A sad, sad loss. I will be thinking of you all on Friday, and especially thinking of that delightful, brave, funny, caring, talented man.
